On the rooftops of Helena...


Last Tuesday I had a fun time spent on the roof. On Wednesday we left on a trip while Stonewall was in Mexico, and I didn't have time to blog it. After that, my dear sister was dreadfully sick and spent some time in the hospital. Now, however, life's back to normal and I can blog this.

I made a kite out of nothing but paper, broomstraws, and fourteen pieces of tape. The wind was light so I took it up on the roof to try it out. It is a very light and interesting kite, but it still wouldn't fly. Broomstraw kites are almost as fun to build as they are to fly, so I may be writing further about them later.

Since my kite wouldn't fly, and since the weather at roof altitude was so nice, I hated to come down. So, I decided to pass my time musically.
Quite an original idea, don't you think?

Well isn't that cool. A little scary on your rooftop no less. Enjoy that fiddle! Tell your family we said hello.

Fiddler on the Roof! I love it! Excellent pictures!!! Be careful up there, though. That looks a might dangerous, if you ask me.
